The Wiley Kowalski Jointed 12" has caught many Big Muskies all over the U.S.A. & Canada and even some over 50" from Chautauqua Lake! Who ever ends up being the highest bidder and wins this one will be lucky to have a very rare Wiley Kowalski Jtd 12" with a Lazer Cut Aluminnum Lip(no longer made with that lip)!

I have one more Kowalski Jointed 12"in Bunker Gold color that I will put up as this auction gets close to the end!

Thanks to everyone for there support for the Chautauqua Bait Fish Fund through these eBay Auctions.

Come on guys! He's practically giving the second one away! Only $62.50, so far. This is supposed to be a fund raiser. Help those poor little skinny fishes grow up to be all they can be!

Someone needs to get the second Wiley Kowalski moving again! I can't bid on it myself,ebay will not let me!

Who is up? Bunker Gold is one of Dale Wiley's most successful colors for big muskies.

Lee,

You wouldn't happen to quietly have the top bid on both of the Wileys, would you? I bid the cheap one up a couple of bucks, just to see what would happen. I was overbid, and it looks like your handiwork!

Do you plan on being the only one on the lake catching big fish, by cornering the market?

Good luck with that! Or, if I'm mistaken to whomever gets it.

ok so I gotta ask..and excuse the ignorance...been wonderin what is so special about the aluminum lip? does it make for a better lure or its it just that its rare, now that everyone has switched away from metal and over to the lexan lips? if it is better then why would dale quit making em that way. not trying to derail anything here, just curious...

The Aluminnum Lip version of kowalski has a little more thump in the action,not sure if it is the extra weight of the lip giving a differant dive curve angle that causes the thump.But you can feel the differance from the lexan lip vs. the aluminnum lip versions.Also there is added flash from the aluminnum lip you do not get from the lexan version.I have caught many more muskies on the aluminnum lip version then with the lexan version.Plus you can crunch bottom in rock and not worry about breaking the lip.Dale Wiley never realy made the aluminnum lip version for genreal sales,only for his very close friends.The lazer cut aluminnum lips are expensive vs. the lexan,that is why Dale does not offer them anymore,not even to most close friends.

Believe me it was hard parting with these two,If I did not have more for my own use I never would have given up these!

The question is would putting up one more Legend Plow on eBay Auction for the Bait Fish Fund be pushing the window of opratunity to far?

It is a very nice special colored Legend Plow and is also New!

If everyone thinks it is a good idea I'll put it up. We have raised over $500 from all the eBay Auctions,including the little ones for small lures and leaders as well!

Soon as I can get the picture up I'll post on eBay an Assume Colored New Legend Plow next!

NitroMusky needs it so he can think he has a fish when he reals it in at 4+ mph!
